Luiz, it is not clear how wide spread the K-7 will become in Israel. Presently, no store shows it. I got it on a very special order. It is therefore possible that if I cancel my order, I will be left without the camera. I am thinking that I might want to take the risk and if indeed it proves awkward (to put it mildly) I will probably go and switch systems all together.
